27 days agounfortunately Futo seems to only be source-available and not libre software :/
though I can +1 the Heliboard recommendation! idk when they added it but it finally has a multilingual keyboard function :)
that’s the thing though, it strips you of the options the four essential freedoms provide.
and imo it’s not rly an argument. Libre software is free as in freedom and not necessarily free as in beer. You could license it under the (A)GPL, charge for downloads in the Play store or for compiled binaries on ur website and ask for donations on F-Droid.
You could even do a freemium version where some features are locked in the binaries you distribute and need a license from ur website or smth (for those who don’t want to use Google Play). (iirc SD Maid 2/SE does this)
